Available for new or field deployed CM3000 and CM3800 test platforms,
the new firmware update (version 2.23) provides significant capabilities
enhancing the technician's ability to analyze and troubleshoot the RF
and fiber distribution network. New features include the fastest
spectrum dispay with a 0.3 µSec sample rate and 100 mSec sweep rate to
capture even the shortest bust of ingress, impulse noise or electrical
interference in the upstream path. In addition, equalizer stress,
frequency response and group delay measurements have been added to the
cable modem and digital video analyzer functions.

"The firmware release is significant to the CATV industry because it
vastly improves the capabilities of our CM3000 product family to give
technicians the ability to identify and resolve network impairments
before they actually impact the customers," explained Jack Webb, product
manager at Sunrise Telecom (News - Alert). "These performance enhancements enable
technicians to accurately troubleshoot difficult electrical interference
and short duration impulse noise problems - capabilities that are beyond
the scope of typical Digital Service Activation Meters."
